Does anyone know how to get help with Dental Cost?

I wanting to know if anyone has any information on how to get help for dental cost, the portion that your insurance has not covered? My husband has a lot of work that needs to be done and its going to cost over $3000 and we do not have that money, and all you know that Dental Places want their money up front right away. We already tried applying for financing such as Care Credit and did not qualify, so now we are looking at other ways to help us pay for this work, cause he really needs it done. So any information that anyone has would be very much helpful. Thank you!

couple of low cost suggestions: 1) dental school: i know it seems scary, but students in the clinic have been 'practicing' on mannequins for 2-3 years prior, under the supervision of many highly qualified area dentists, and nothing is done without at least two other people checking. it does take some time but you can get a crown for $500 versus $1000+ in private practice. 2) community health centers: again cheap option, about 25% off from private practice. foreign trained dentists usually but all qualified and licensed. 3) state aid insurance like medicaid: some dentists take it and you can get care for 50% off or just a copay. good luck ttg
